Every dime we lend comes from either our hard-earned after-tax or retirement (SD401k) money.When we’re at a real estate club, which is where we find almost all our borrowers and are asked what we do, our elevator pitch is, “We loan our own money to local, experienced, house flippers toward their properties in Los Angeles and North Orange County.”At a top level, and hopefully actionable, here is our process in 10 easy steps …1) You’ll need to spend some time with a good lending attorney.

My girlfriend and I are in the orange county area and new to real estate investing.
